Ok I am getting some funky wear on both of my front tires. Both tires are wearing badly on the shoulders, I regularly check tire pressure and i stay at 35 psi or above. I have a small amount of wander in the steering also. I have a new idler arm, upper and lower ball joints and tie rod ends and front shocks and springs, what the heck could be causing this goofy wear? i have replaced the tires about 8,000 miles ago and feel they need to be replaced again. My alignment also checks out ok

Good idea, I'll have to get a pry bar in thereComment

what edge are the tires wearing on? inside or out? both tires? Any play in the front end at all?
Any slop in the steering box?Last edited by 1990LTD; 01-18-2013, 11:59 PM.sigpic

both and its inside and outside but outside edges are worseComment

Wear on both shoulders indicates low pressure on the tires.Comment

that was my first thought, but i bought a new gauge and still staying at 35+ psi also passenger side is worseComment
